It Takes a Village is a quiet little gem that really dives into the themes of resilience and community. Set against the backdrop of a city still reeling from a storm, the narrative centers on a young boy who embarks on his journey of self-discovery. The pacing is deliberate, allowing moments of introspection and small interactions to breathe. What struck me is how the performances, especially from the child actor, feel genuine and layered—like you’re peeking into real lives rather than just watching a script unfold. The practical effects and understated cinematography help ground the story, making it feel intimate. It’s not flashy, but there’s a certain warmth and authenticity that lingers long after the credits roll.
